PRINCE FREDERICK, Md. – Aug. 2, 2019 – The Calvert County Department of Planning & Zoning is holding a public workshop on Tuesday, Aug. 14 from 6:30-8 p.m. as part of an effort to update the Calvert County Transportation Plan.

The workshop will be held at the College of Southern Maryland, Prince Frederick Campus, John E. Harms Academic Services Building (Building A), Room 119, located at 115 J. W. Williams Road in Prince Frederick.

Consultant firm Sabra & Associates will present its analysis of traffic generated by the proposed Comprehensive Plan under various build-out scenarios, roadway alternatives to manage additional traffic if necessary and an outline of the recommended transportation plan.
